My three kiddo's

I've started a blog! Yikes!

I decided to start a blog because, as anyone who knows me knows, I have LOTS of opinions about LOTS of things! I am ready to share them all, with you.  Aren't you lucky??

ALL ABOUT ME
I am a stay at home mom (but looking desperately for a job).  I have three kids: Meghan (almost 13), Brendan (10) and Katie (3).  I live in Connecticut but I was born and raised on Long Island, N.Y.  My heart is still there, along with all of my family, but Connecticut is definitely a much nicer place to raise my kids. 
I graduated from Holy Trinity High School in Hicksville, N.Y. in 1989.  I went directly to New York Institute of Technology where I received a bachelor's degree in Art Eduction and a master's degree in Elementary Education. Sad to say, I have put neither to good use. 
I realized after I graduated and started teaching that teaching was just not for me. So, that left me pretty much at square one.  I was an art director for a summer camp for one year.  I worked as a medical receptionist (during college) and worked as a medical transcriptionist for 12 years, from home, while raising my kids.  I worked briefly teaching basic computer classes to seniors in an Adult Education program and that has been, so far, my favorite job.  I had a baby and that job, unfortunately, was no longer conducive to my life.  Most recently I worked as an enumerator for the 2010 census and I had a BLAST! Loved it!
I have thought, for years now, that I would love to get into publishing.  I love to find typo's in newspapers, magazines and pamphlets.  I am forever correcting grammar and spelling.  What can I say? It makes me happy.  I would be an awesome proofreader (with that being said, I am sure there will be 100's of mistakes on this blog - LOL)!. 
So, that's me in a nutshell.  I am a modern mom.  Three very busy kids.  Searching for a career.  Voicing my opinion whenever I can.  Trying to survive in this crazy world!
